Gigi challenged me to write a whimiscal poem, so here is my best first try. Wrote during our trip to Edge Patagonia!
I flew halfway across the world only to have to teach my friends The beauty and cosmic wonder in the universal oneness But the oneness they still don't understand like when they close our tab, it's like we all paid as one Greedy! Consciousness is one of the great mysteries of our time At the same time, studying too much consciousness is dangerous What if my unconscious becomes conscious And my mind begins to control my body? Scary! Sometimes our collective has images of the future And these are vital to the health of society For if we don't study the mistakes of the future We are doomed to repeat them for the first time Oops! But sometimes, even a believer like me, doubts the gurus I bravely took the plunge and experienced my first sound bath But all it did was make my speaker stop working Sad! Evidence is everywhere of our souls seeing more Like one time, in my mind I imagined my backyard A perfect image, crisp like a photo, of my backyard Then, when I walked out to my backyard Suddenly, I was in my backyard Inspirational! Before my teachers, I can't believe what I thought The fools told me we came from monkeys But I know better, I know the truth My plane tickets prove I came from California Brave! After this trip, I can safely say I am changed forever Yes, changed as a person, everything is different Yes, indeed For now, I am 7 days older Thanks to Edge Patagonia!
